How to Make a Humidity Tray. March 23, 2010. March 18, 2016. Photo credit: beautifulorchids.com. A humidity tray is a shallow dish lined with stones or pebbles and filled with water almost to the top of the stones; the plant sits ON TOP OF the stones and reaps the benefit of the water as it evaporates. You just have to make sure that the plant is not sitting IN the water – something that can lead to root rot. More details on humidity trays can be found here. Tagged caring for orchids.

First Spike in our New Apartment! May 10, 2016. May 10, 2016. My orchids have, sadly, been rather dormant ever since we moved into our current apartment at the end of last June. The “orchid room”. If you follow me on Facebook. You might already be aware of this development. The spike was hiding inside the folds between the leaves and the pseudobulb, and it was a little bent but still totally viable. It was about an inch and a half long by the time I found it.

Quick Update: My First Orchid Bloom of 2015! | Brooklyn Orchids
http://bklynorchids.com/2015/01/15/quick-update-my-first-bloom-of-2015
Quick Update: My First Orchid Bloom of 2015! January 15, 2015. March 13, 2016. In my last post I shared photos of a couple of my Phals that are in spike. Well, my peloric Phal has finally begun to bloom and it makes me so happy! These blooms just never get old for me. As I suspected, this first bloom is facing downward because I most likely didn’t keep the plant’s orientation to the light consistent while the buds were growing. Whoopsie…but it’s still gorgeous! That’s all for now! May 29, 2015 at 6:15 pm.
